When: Wednesday, August 3rd at 9:00am

Where: 36 Degrees North, 36 E Cameron St, Tulsa, OK 74119

What’s the Leche Lounge?

The Leche Lounge was created to encourage working mothers to pump breast milk by providing a better space for them to do it in.

Fulfilling the requirements of pumping laws (created by the Affordable Care Act), the Leche Lounge comes equipped with a hospital-grade breast pump (proven to express milk faster), a USB charger, fan, food-grade seating and a mirror to readjust clothing. The units are also stocked with cleaning wipes for pump parts and calming lavender wipes for refreshing the space between guests. Companies can rent or buy the portable lactation suites to install in their offices.

Background: Stephanie Conduff saw first-hand the need for a breast-pumping space at work and in law school. She felt pumping in bathroom stalls and closets discouraged mothers from providing breastmilk to their growing children. So she got connected to the Forge, Tulsa’s leading business incubator, and created the Leche Lounge.
